I personally think this deserves saving. But it seems it isn't going to be, so here's some feedback:
1) Compress your music. The filesize was way too big. Go to FILE>PUBLISH SETTINGS>FLASH tab, and drop it to 16 or 32 kbps
2) Spend a little more time on graphics - for instance, gradient backgrounds, add some lighting to the ball using radial gradient, etc
3) Find a more showy font, take time to line the text up nicely, and run everything through a spellchecker
Not at all bad as far as platformers go. Keep it up, make it more shiny, and it'll get on NG in the end.

I'm stunned. That was the best collab I've ever seen on NG. I'm not going to put them in order of preference, because they were all superb in their own way, and that was a sweet menu, too.
Mad props to you guys for taking the time to produce some seriously quality Flash

That was actually pretty impressive for 69 kb. Nice work.

Good, but not your best. Bit too mainstream I guess. I think Forest Ranger is my favourite, closely followed by Little Leaders. This one lacked the surreal humour IMO, and suffered for it. Still great graphics though, and nice to see the guest appearance from Patrick.
Keep up the great work. I always look forward to catching your movies on the Portal.

Simply put: brilliant.
Great art & animation, exquisite choice of music, excellent storyline. Don't be discouraged that the score is a little low, that's just the 'First-time submitter' effect. Make more of these, and I reckon you'll get daily awards and probably front page.

Excellent. Been too long since I heard that song. Sweet graphics, interesting suitably twisted storyline. Quite Gorillazesque. Great job.

Heh, you're cheeky fuckers. Still, at least 'my' submission was the best of 'em.

Yes, I had a laugh at Bill's expense. That was possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen in my time on Newgrounds, and one of the few things to make me laugh out loud. It's a shame you used sticks (although I think for once, the style of the movie justified their use), since it's gonna push your score right down. In my eyes, though, the humour, storyline and music choice more than make up for the scrappy graphics.
Excellent work. Thank you for bringing a bit of light into an otherwise boring day.

Wow. If only all the DailyToons were of this quality, and a reasonable filesize, you guys wouldn't even need to consider the option of mass-voting. That was a pretty damn good Flash, it's a shame it was unfinished...
Maybe Wade has given the SS the wake-up call it needs. It doesn't take that long to learn how to use Flash well enough to make movies that will get through because they're GOOD...

I created dailytoons, as well as this cartoon. I love the low-quality ones, because they are so blunt, it's hilarious. I think that our earlier dailytoons were the best though. I miss Seven's old ones.
